Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

pins to ensure they lead where you want to point
people.
• Consider what each pin says about your

56. Ethics of Pinterest
One widely shared perspective on Pinterest’s ethical dilemmas
“From a legal perspective, my concern was for my own potential liability. From an artist’s
perspective, my concern was that I was arguably engaging in activity that is morally,
ethically and professionally wrong.” -
http://ddkportraits.com/2012/02/why-i-tearfully-deleted-my-pinterest-inspiration-boards/
I suggest reading this, and Pinterest’s updated Terms of use Twitter: @libraryfuture
57. http://poesygalore.blogspot.com/2012/03/on-pinterest-and-why-i-tearfully.html
One librarian’s response – Emily Lloyd
“…something less like Napster and more like del.icio.us:
a place to store neat things I don't want to forget.”
“When I used del.icio.us, I'd post a link to an image I wanted to remember. On
Pinterest, I've posted images with links underneath them. They feel like such
similar acts, to be so different!”
Twitter: @libraryfuture
59. Gonzalo E. Mon points out in this
Mashable article that:
-Pinterest does not own the content
you Pin.
-Pinning content does grant
Pinterest some rights to use of that
content (similar to Facebook’s).
-“No, You Can’t Just Post Other
People’s Stuff”
-Confirm that licenses include
permission to Pin.
-“also be careful before you post any
content that includes celebrity
images or third party trademarks.”
-“If your legal department would
advise you not to post something on
the website, you probably shouldn’t
http://mashable.com/2012/03/21/pinterest-copyright-legal-issues/
pin it to your company’s pinboard,
either.”
One solution – only in that which you own. Reasonable approach.
Twitter: @libraryfuture
60. Where the difference may lie
– “Both Twitter and
Facebook encourage sharing
personal experiences and
photos rather than content
created by someone else,
says Deborah Sweeney,
intellectual property lawyer
and CEO of MyCorporation.”
“According to Pinterest's Terms of Use, however, it's my responsibility to get General
Foods International's permission prior to posting anything involving its trademark.”
“Pinterest Places Copyright Responsibility on Users”
Tip: “check with your product photographer that you own all rights to the images and that
repinning would be an accepted use, since you may have only paid for the images to be used
on your own website.”
http://www.pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/250700/what_you_should_know_about_pinterest_and_copyright.html
Twitter: @libraryfuture
62. http://carterlawaz.com/2012/03/copyright-infringement-on-pinterest/
“A copyright holder has the exclusive rights to make copies and distribute their work. Pinning
appears to be making a copy of an original work, and if you don't own or have permission to pin
the work, you might be at risk of being accused of copyright infringement.” Twitter: @libraryfuture
64. You agree not to post User Content that:
•infringes any third party’s Intellectual Property
Rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, or other
personal or proprietary rights;
•contains any information or content that you do
not have a right to make available under any law
or under contractual or fiduciary relationships; or

Copyright Policy
“Pinterest has adopted and implemented the
Pinterest Copyright Policy in accordance with
the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. For more
information, please read our Copyright Policy.”
Twitter: @libraryfuture
65. Good advice form Erin Dali:
“The bottom line is, there is copyright
confusion when it comes to Pinterest, but that
shouldn’t stop us from using the site. What
can we do? We can pin smart and pin safe.”
http://yalsa.ala.org/blog/2012/03/29/pinterest-copyright-concerns/
Author’s 6 tips for smarter, safer, pinning (paraphrased):
•Pin your own content with the intent to share.
•Pin images when creators have attached a “Pin Me” button. They are inviting you to share as
well.
•Pin original posts and include links with your pins. “Attribution does not necessarily make
copies legal under fair use, but it is always a good idea to give credit to creators.”
•Pin things licensed with Creative Commons licenses.
•Confirm if pinning specific content falls under Fair Use.
•When in doubt – ask the content creator.
Twitter: @libraryfuture
66. Pin Etiquette Guidelines:
• Credit Your Sources: Pins are
the most useful when they
have links back to the original
source. If you notice that a pin
is not sourced correctly, leave
a comment so the original
pinner can update the source.
Finding the original source is
always preferable to a
secondary source such as
Image Search or a blog entry.
